    Hi everyone,

    I've been deluged with pop-up ads and my computer has slowed to a crawl. I've tried using the Hijack this tutorial to get rid of some stuff but I'm afraid to delete any more in case I kill my computer.

    I have used the latest versions of Ad-aware, Spybot S+D, anbd McAfee AntiVirus. I also have Spyware Blaster installed, although I didn't get it on there until the spyware problem was already in full swing.

    Would appreciate any help!!

    Sorry, I cannot look in detail right now but one item hit me (two lines)
    C:\Program Files\BroadJump\Client Foundation\CFD.exe
    O4 - HKLM\..\Run: [BJCFD] C:\Program Files\BroadJump\Client Foundation\CFD.exe

    This is for BroadJump Client Foundation. Broadband troubleshooting software installed by various companies. Not required and you can remove it via Add/Remove programs. If you cannot do it that way then have HijaakThis fix the O4 line. Then reboot in safe mode and delete the whole C:\Program Files\BroadJump directory.

    Next time you post a HijaakThis log, do not cut off the top information containg your OS info and IE version info.

    Chas,

    Thanks for taking the time to respond to my post.

    I went and removed the Broadjump application without difficulty. The ads however continue with impunity. If you could provide any further suggestions I'd be grateful!

    Lord,

    Try this first: download CrapCleaner and give it a run. Just run it and on the Windows tab (you'll see when you run it) leave the defaults and click Run Cleaner. Download it here: http://www.majorgeeks.com/download4191.html

    If still having a problem after that shut down all applications, run HijaakThis and have it fix these:

    Do you use investors.com? If you do not use it then remove the next line too.

    If still having a problem after all the above, boot in safe mode: http://service1.symantec.com/SUPPORT/tsgeninfo.nsf/docid/2001052409420406?OpenDocument&src=sec_doc_nam
    and run both Ad-aware and SpyBot S&D and clean anything they find. Now reboot in normal mode.
    If still having popup problems, tell me exactly what they are for and give any URL's indicated.

    Chas,

    I ran Crapcleaner, removed all the O16 lines you suggested, and ran Ad-aware and Spybot S+D in safe mode. Problem remains as is.

    I notice when I turn the computer on initially and open up an IE browser page, a second page quickly pops up, says "Loading", and then closes just as quickly. From then on, the slow loading times and pop ups begin. The popups really vary a lot (no one source), here's an URL from one of the latest: http://66.33.0.35/spyblocs/adv/tdw1.html

    And below is my latest HiJack Log. Thanks again for any help! Acid

    I tried running the Look2me program with standard security settings and got frozen out for 24 hours, I anticipate I'll have it run by early tomorrow.

    Thanks again!

    PS BTW Alan C, I know it's not the acid.... toooooo old for that stuff nowadays :p

    Here what we do next Lord,

    Reboot but DON'T reconnect to the internet. **** Stay off the internet until the entire procedure is complete. ***
    1) Run Vx2Finder click on the *click to find VX2.BetterInternet* button.
    2) Then select the *Delete these files* button.
    3) You will be left with notice about one to be deleted on reboot.
    4) Reboot
    5) Open VX2Finder again and click on these buttons in the right pane:
    - user agent
    - Guardian.reg
    - restore policy
    6) Exit and reboot

    Run the VX2 finder one last time and post a new log in your thread. (want to make sure it is clean).

    Once it is clean (wait for it to be clean) you should probably get rid of System Restore points to avoid possibily bring this problem back. You do this as follows:
    1: Right click on the My Computer icon on your desktop and select properties.
    2: Click on the system restore tab.
    3: Check the box that says "Turn off system restore on all drives". Click OK.
    4: Click Yes when you are prompted to restart the computer
    5: Now re-enable System Restore, follow steps 1-3, but in step 3, click to clear the Disable System Restore check box. Reboot again.

    That did it Chas! (fingers crossed)... no longer do I get that load hijack screen!

    Log for Vx2 posted... looks clear!:

    Log for VX2.BetterInternet File Finder

    Many thanks for getting this crap off my computer!!! Anything besides the usual ad-aware/spybot/spyblaster/antivirus to prevent it from getting back on?

    Thanks again...

    Your welcome!

    A firewall would be good to have if you are not using one.
